Climate change has emerged as one of the most pressing challenges of our time. As the Earth's average temperature continues to rise, scientists are working tirelessly to understand the complex mechanisms behind this phenomenon. At the heart of this scientific exploration lies the study of the chemistry behind climate change, particularly the role of greenhouse gases in driving global warming. In this article, we delve into the chemistry of greenhouse gases, their impact on our planet's climate and the urgent need for collective action. Greenhouse Gases (GHGs) are naturally occurring and anthropogenic compounds that play a critical role in Earth's climate system. They act like a blanket, trapping heat in the atmosphere and regulating the planet's temperature. While some greenhouse gases, such as water vapor, occur naturally, others are primarily generated through human activities, such as industrial processes and the burning of fossil fuels.
